[OpenLayers-Dev] Code Sprint: SLD

[Cameron Shorter]

Of note:
During the code sprint I helped to start building sample ogc:filters for 
the style. (Actually, I only built one)
The next step I discussed with Andreas was to use a standard GML test 
set which I recommend should be the Tasmania GML used by Geoserver and 
Mapbuilder.
Alex Djioev from Lisasoft did a little work on this yesterday and I 
expect he will be committing to Andreas's sandbox soon.
Of interest and possible concern is that rendering seemed to be 
noticeably slower with the slightly larger Tasmania dataset. This 
dataset is still reasonably small by vector standards and we might need 
to consider ways to optimize.
